Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Jack-up offshore platforms are widely used in many fields, and it is of great importance to quickly and accurately predict the dynamic response of platform pile leg structures in real time. The current analytical techniques are founded upon numerical modelling of the platform structure. Although these methods can be used to accurately analyze the dynamic response of the platform, they require a large quantity of computational resources and cannot meet the requirements of real-time prediction. A predictive model for the dynamic response of the pile leg of a jack-up platform based on the random forest algorithm is proposed. Firstly, a pile leg dynamic response database is established based on high-fidelity numerical model simulation calculations. The data are subjected to cleaning and dimensional reduction in order to facilitate the training of the random forest model. Cross-checking and Bayesian optimization algorithms are used for the selection of random forest parameters. The results show that the prediction model is capable of outputting response results for new environmental load inputs within a few milliseconds, and the prediction results remain highly accurate and perform well at extreme values.
